Here is the text I used to decode the morse. White squares I converted to -'s and black to _'s. The grey ones I adjusted depending on the neighbors to get a nice wave form.
Code:
--_____--------_--___--________--__--______----_--------__--_______--------_--___--___--___--_______
. -.. .. .-. -....

--______-------__--------_----_-------_______--___--_---------_____----_---------_---------_--------______--___--___--__--___--__________

That is some serious guidance system, there are quite a few little clips into the Ridley Scott mind.
And you could always look back to see whats ahead

Wow! I just googled 6EQUJ5! I'd never heard of any of that before! Well lesson learned... Next time I think I've found gibberish I'll run a quick google on it first.
*edit* I feel even dumber not knowing about it since it happened on the day I was born and I've looked at famous events for that day lots of times... derrrrp...

Nice! The image goes by so quickly in the trailer that I didn't notice it before. It looks like a woman in the middle of some kind of 3D holographic map of the universe or at least part of the universe.
Great work finding it!

excellent work guys! this is awesome.
out of curiosity, what settings (wpm) did you use to get the final answer?
I did it manually this afternoon and got the same result as last night so posted it anyway. Glad I did. Now to look at that next picture.
I guess we got a taste of what it's like looking for extra terrestrial life hehe. I wonder what's next? I'm taking it that the picture does not lead on elsewhere. Maybe we'll get some sort of reveal of a creature or a H.R.Giger murial?? Excited.

Dunno if this is anything, but the same image comes up at 0:43 in the trailer.

Ugh... I figured out that 6EQUJ5 thing last night like 8 times and threw out the paper figuring that was garbage... The way I figured it out was using the longer black moments in the gif as spaces between letters... Now I feel dumb.
This. Just looked at the scribbles I was making yesterday and there it is. If only I had studied more in Mystery Radio Signals From Space class.

Wow!
This is an awesome picture. Only the first 4 characters of the morse code are inconsistent, it means there's something that needs to be refined there.
